Maybe it's time to declare peace, come home, and leave her there (forever) to enjoy the fruits of her labors. In fairness, Snaquebite's comments are on track with some of the stuff I've heard too. Course I stand by my first comment; I get to walk past the Memorial Wall in front of USASOC on a daily basis. Seeing it have to be expanded because we're running out of room and reading drivel like Ms. Gaston spews infuriates me.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
